United States Commissioner Law
rence has received a lot of new plats
of townships in this district, show

date, and he is prepared to supply
blue prints to all wlio want them.
He also has arranged to receive
checkings from Lakcview and will
have the latest , available informa

Deschutes valley lying in that dis
trict. The freighters Moore and Stroud
nrrived Wednesday with two six
horse loads from Shaniko, five
tons each. Though they were
nominally for the Hend Mercantile
Company, most of the freiirlit con
sisted of household goods for S. H.
Dorrance and J. M. Lawrence, who
now deem themselves entirely
moved to Head. This freight was
about six weeks coming in from
Portland.
Have you noticed how the ap
pearance of "Dad" West & Co.'s
new meat market .suggests n hu
man skull? The two tinner win
dows form the eyes, the depressed
upper door tltc nasal orifice and the
window sash of the front form the
teeth. The coat of white paint now
going on the .structure will not rem
edy the- matter. The peculiar
marking of the building may tend
to make late travelers on Wall
street more temperate in their hab
its. The Hend Mercantile Coninauv
will have a irrand onenintr utxm the
completion of its new building and
the arrival of its full stock of eoods.
The date is yet a little uncertain
because ot the difficulty of trans
porting large quantities of freight
from the railroad, but it will le
about two weeks hence. Manager
Grant has emraied Broker's Con
cert Hand for the occasion and will
have evcrvthinc readv for a nronor
celebration 01 tins notable event in
Heud's commercial history.
There is considerable delay in
getting the machinery for the P.
II. I). Co.'s new mill, at the ditch
line three miles up the river. A
new engine and boiler and other
equipment for the mill are supposed
to be on the way from Portland.
This will do away with the neces
sity of moving the plant from this
place. The new mill will have
nearly three times the capacity of
the old one. Men are at work saw
ing and hauling logs to the new lo
cation, so there will be plenty of
stock to saw when the mill shall be
ready to work. This may be two
weeks -or more heneck
CELEHRATED THE FOURTH.
Many Visitors In Hend find tho Day
Well spent.
Between 300 and ,-500 people par
ticipated in the celebration of the
Fourth of July here this year. It
was an orderly and patriotic crowd
and there was plenty of enjoyment
for all. The funds subscribed were
ample for all excuses and the cel
ebration committee is able to show
a clean bill of excuses as well art a
creditable celebration.
Of course Young America opened
the day with his firecrackers.
Shortly before 1 1 o'clock the crowd
gathered in the park south of the
postolfice and the exercises then
followed this

All these numbers were short and
well rendered and nobody had a
chance to become tired. Miss
Wicst's cabinet organ was used for
the accompaniment. Mr. liaison's
oration was finished in fifteen min

After the platform programme
the crowd was entertained by the
races whose story was told in the

In the afternoon the Bend base
ball team crossed bats with the
Scrub club with the result that the
1 former by brilliant stick work and
superior legging rolled up the com
fortable score of 1 6, and the latter,
being deficient in bluffing accom
plishments, tallied only 4 times.
The $10 purse went to the Bend
organized team.
The two balls at West's hall were
entirely successful. For the Fri
day night dance the receipts were
$27 and Saturday night the attend
ance was more than twice as great
but only $13 was realized, the price
being but half as much and some of
the dancers not paying even that.
A'ery satisfactory music was sup
plied by A. H. Kennedy, Mrs.
Broker and Harry Broker. Solid
and liquid refreshments were served
in the room under the dance hall.
Saturday evening there was a
gorgeous display of fireworks at the
I store of the Hend Mercantile Com
jpauy. Manager Grant entered
I properly into the spirit of the occa
sion and sent sky rockets and Ro
I man caudles ripping aloft, with piu
' wheels and various color devices to
vary the picturesque programme.
, The display drew a large crowd.
1 Mrs. Drake narrowly escaped in
jury in the morning by a cracker
hanging fire. She had lit and
thrown the cracker in the grass in
front of the house. It failed to ex
plode in the usual time and site
picked it up. As she raised it near
her face it exploded, filling her face
with smoke and burning a large
hole in her waist. Fortunately no
fire reached her face.
A Priueville man named Sports
.mau created some disorder at tltc
dance late Friday night and was
ejected fcom the ballroom. Ihis
was the only case of disorder re
ported during the celebration. Sat
urday Sportsman was thrown from
n horse he was riding at the races,
but he was not injured.
The full financial report of the
celebration will be made at a meet
ing Saturday night. Roughly, there
was collected from citizens' sub
scriptions $ 48, 50, of which $30 went
for race prizes, $10 for baseball
purse and $8.50 for incidentals.
The dances were slightly more than
self-sustaining. The lumber for
the platform and seats in the park
was lent by the P. B. D. Co. and it
was hauled to the grounds by CM.
Doukel and returned to the lumber
yard by Arnt Amic without charge.
Miss Wiest contributed the service
of her cabinet organ at tltc dances
and at the park.

The demand for accommodations
at Hot Lake, nine miles from La
Grande, oil the main line of the 0.
R. & N., has been so great that the
management has been obliged to
double its capacity. The old bath
house is being replaced by a new
brick one, and guests of the sani
tarium arc assured of every comfort
and convenience. Sixty thousand
dollars were spent in improvements
last year. The flow of hot water is
about 2,500,000 gallons a day, and
its temperature is about 190 de
grees. The treatment consists of
copious drinking of the water, hot
baths, vapor baths, and hot mud
baths. Ninety per cent of all cases
of rheumatism, dyspepsia, liver and
stomach ailments, nervous disorders,
kidney and skin diseases are cured.
